Glorious! I reckon you’ve come pretty darn close to re-presenting that moment for us. I’ve just finished reading The Song of the Earth by Jonathan Bate - have you read it? It’s literary criticism (so I’m sure you will have) and develops the argument that the world needs poets, or rather ecopoetics, to bring us as close as we can get to the divine mystical experience of life. It’s something I’ve been thinking a lot about recently and you’ve expressed it perfectly here.

I don’t that book. I’ll definitely check it out. Thanks for the recommendation.
Saul is a wonderful catalyst.
